<p>On Friday, <strong><a href="http://celebuzz.com/celebrities/patrick-dempsey" target="_blank">Patrick Dempsey</a></strong> and his company Global Baristas were approved to buy Seattle-based coffee company Tully’s, which filed for bankruptcy in October 2012.</p>
<p>The approval comes just days after Dempsey’s camp won an auction against coffee giant Starbucks and five other bidders. But the original victory had to be reconsidered by a judge after Starbucks’ bidding partner filed an objection, according to the <em><a href="http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_TULLYS_COFFEE_SALE?SITE=AP&amp;SECTION=HOME&amp;TEMPLATE=DEFAULT" target="_blank">Associated Press</a></em>.</p>
<p>“I’ve been deeply humbled by the outpouring of support from the city of Seattle and am very proud to be a new business owner in this amazing city,” the <em>Grey’s Anatomy</em> actor said in a statement.</p>
<p>“We have a lot to accomplish over the next few months and years, and I am excited to now call Seattle my second home.”</p>
<p>Dempsey and his company will purchase Tully’s for $9.2 million.</p>
<p><span id="more-13961722"></span></p>
<p>Tully’s, which has been around since 1992, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy some three months ago, leaving the future of more than 500 employees up for grabs.</p>
<p>Dempsey and Global Baristas will now have full control of Tully’s 47 locations in the Seattle area. Incidentally, his hit ABC series is set in the rainy city.</p>
<p>“We won !!! We won !!! Thank you Seattle ! See you soon!” the actor <a href="http://twitter.com/patrickdempsey" target="_blank">wrote on Twitter</a> following Friday’s victory.</p>
<p>“It’s 2 in the morning just got home, 15 hour work day, what a day ! This one I will never forget ! Good night,” he later added.</p>
